We present the control software and its development process for a prototype of the Camera and Grating Articulation System (CGAS) for GMACS, a wide-field, multi-object, moderate-resolution optical spectrograph for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). The CGAS prototype is currently designed for the camera articulation controller as a miniature model of the GMACS. The camera articulation package (CAP) is a software that controls two stepper motors to adjust the camera angle. The package is developed using Visual C++ and runs on Windows 10. We discuss the architectural design and communication route between the high-end user software and the electronics hardware.

In this paper, it was presented to design and analyze the kinematics of grasping a rigid object by means of multi-degrees-of-freedom hand fingers. It is shown firstly that a set of kinematic equation describing dynamics system of the arm and object together with geometric constraint of tight area-contacts is formulated by Lagrange's equation. It has been presented secondly that the problems of controlling both the forces of pressing object and the rotation angle of the object under the geometric constraints are discussed. In this research, the control method for static stable grasping and enhancing dexterity in manipulating things is proposed. It is illustrated by computer simulation that the control system gives the performance improvement in the kinematic grasping of the hand fingers of robot.

This paper deals with a workspace analysis of multi-legged walking robots in velocity domain(velocity workspace analysis). Noting that when robots are holding the same object in multiple cooperating robotic arm system the kinematic structure of the system is basically the same with that of a multi-legged walking robot standing on the ground, we invented a way ot applying the technique for multiple arm system to multi-legged walking robot. An important definition of reaction velocity is made and the bounds of velocities achievable by the moving body with multi-legs is derived from the given bounds on the capabilities of actuators of each legs through Jacobian matrix for given robot configuration. After some assumption of hard-foot-condition is adopted as a contact model between feet of robot and the ground, visualization process for the velocity workspace is proposed. Also, a series of application examples will be presented including continuous walking gaits as well as several different stationary posture of legged walking robots, which validate the usefulness of the proposed technique.

This paper discusses dynamic characteristics of motion of a pair of multi-degrees of freedom robot fingers executing grasp of a rigid object and controlling its orientation with the aid of rolling contacts. In particular, the discussions are focused on a problem of gain-tuning of sensory feedback signals proposed from the viewpoint of sensorymotor coordination, which consist of a feedforward term, a feedback term for controlling rotational moment of the object, and another term for controlling its rotational angle. It is found through computer simulations of the overall fingersobject dynamics subject to rolling contact constraints that some dynamic characteristics of torque-angular velocity relation may play an important role likely as reported by experimental results in muscle physiology and therefore selection of damping gains in angular velocity feedback depending on the guess of object mass is crucial. Finally, a guidance of gain-tuning in each feedback term is suggested and its validity is discussed by various computer simulations.

멀티터치 관련 연구는 전반사 장애 현상(FTIR: Frustrated Total Internal Reflection)의 원리를 기반으로 기존 방법을 이용하여 단지 구현하는 것이 대부분이다. 또한 멀티 터치점(Blob-Points) 검출이나 사용자 제스쳐 인식에 있어서 성능 향상을 위한 소프트웨어적 해법에 관한 연구는 드문 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 확산 투광(DI: Diffused Illumination) 방식을 기반으로 개선된 터치점 검출과 사용자 제스쳐 인식에 의한 멀티터치 테이블-탑 디스플레이를 구현한다. 제안된 방법은 실행 중인 어플리케이션 내의 객체들을 위한 동시 변형 멀티터치 명령을 지원하며, 제안한 사전 테스팅(Pre-Testing) 방법에 의해서 멀티 터치점 검출 과정에서 시스템 지연 시간의 감소가 가능하다. 구현된 멀티터치 테이블-탑 디스플레이 장치는 OSC(Open Sound Control) 프로토콜을 기반으로 하는 TUIO(Tangib1e User Interface Object) 환경에서 Flash AS3 어플리케이션을 제작하여 시뮬레이션 한 결과 최대 37% 시스템 지연 시간의 감소와 멀티터치 제스쳐 인식에서 성공적인 결과를 보였다.

A shop floor can be considered as and importand level to develop a Computer Integrated Manufacturing system (CIMs). The shop foor is a dynamic environment where unexpected events contrinuously occur, and impose changes to planned activities. The shop floor should adopt an appropriate control system that is responsible for scheduling coordination and moving the manufacturing material and information flow. In this paper, the architecture of the hybrid control model identifies three levels; i.e., the shop floor controller (SFC), the cell controller(CC) and the equipment controller (EC). The methodology for developing these controller is employ an object-oriented approach for static models and IDEF0 for function models for dispatching a job. SFC and CC are coordinated by employing a multi-factors bidding and an adapted Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) prove applicability of the suggested method. Test experiment has been conducted by with the shopfloor, consisting of six manufacturing cells.

This research is to apply the control of neuron networks for the real-time walking control of Multi-articulated robot. Multi-articulated robot is expressed with a complicated mathematical model on account of the mechanic, electric non-linearity which each articulation of mechanism has, and includes an unstable factor in time of walking control. If such a complex expression is included in control operation, it leads to the disadvantage that operation time is lengthened. Thus, if the rapid change of the load or the disturbance is given, it is difficult to fulfill the control of desired performance. This paper proposes a new mode to implement a neural network controller by installing a real object for controlling and an algorithm for this, which can replace the existing method of implementing a neural network controller by utilizing activation function at the output node. The proposed control algorithm generated control signs corresponding to the non-linearity of Multi-articulated robot, which could generate desired motion in real time.

Ultrasonic sensors are widely used in mobile robot applications to recognize external environments, because they are cheap, easy to use, and robust under varying lighting conditions. However, the recognition of objects using a ultrasonic sensor is not so easy due to its characteristics such as narrow beam width and no reflected signal from a inclined object. As one of the alternatives to resolve these problems, use of multiple sensors has been studied. A sequential driving system needs a long measurement time and does not take advantage of multiple sensors. Simultaneous and pulse coding driving system of ultrasonic sensor array cannot measure short distance as the length of the code becomes long. This problem can be resolved by multi-frequency driving of ultrasonic sensors, which allows multi-sensors to be fired simultaneously and adjacent objects to be distinguished. Accordingly, this paper presents a simultaneous and multi-frequency driving system for an ultrasonic sensor array for object recognition. The proposed system is designed and implemented using a DSP and FPGA. A micro-controller board is made using a DSP, Polaroid 6500 ranging modules are modified for firing the multi-frequency signals, and a 5-channel frequency modulated signal generating board is made using a FPGA. To verify the proposed method, experiments were conducted in an environment with overlapping signals, and the flight distances for each sensor were obtained from filtering of the received overlapping signals and calculation of the time-of-flights.

본 논문은 평행식 스테레오 영상감시 시스템을 이용하여 3차원 공간에서 다중 이동물체를 검출하고, 카메라에서 이동 물체까지의 거리를 측정하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 스테레오 영상감시 시스템의 좌, 우측 영상을 입력을 받아 적응형 임계값과 화소귀납 알고리즘(PRA, pixel recursive algorithm)을 사용하여 다중 이동물체 영역을 추출하였다. 그리고 각각의 물체영역을 윈도우 마스크로 검출하고, 다중 이동물체 각각의 위치좌표와 스테레오 시차를 구하였다. 이 시차와 스테레오 비전 시스템의 특성 및 삼각 함수를 이용하여 다중 이동물체의 거리를 측정하였다. 실험결과 거리측정 오차도 7.28％이내에 존재하였으며, 따라서 제안한 알고리즘을 이용하여 시스템을 구현할 경우 스테레오 방범 시스템, 자율 이동로봇 및 스테레오 원격제어 시스템 등에 응용될 수 있을 것이다.
